John II of Jerusalem

John II of Jerusalem (1267-20 May 1285) was King of Jerusalem from 1284 to 1285, succeeding Hugh III of Cyprus and preceding Henry II of Jerusalem.

Biography
John was born in 1267, the eldest son of King Hugh III of Cyprus and Isabella of Ibelin. His father's succession was disrupted by Charles of Anjou, who had taken over the Kingdom of Jerusalem, leaving Hugh with just the island of Cyprus. Hugh's death allowed for the seventeen-year-old John to become the new King of Jerusalem, but he would be king for just one year. His brothers poisoned him in 1285, and his brother Henry II of Jerusalem succeeded him, reconquering Acre from the House of Anjou that same year.
